What went well

Touchdown 353 m in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 33 ft and 143 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 3.59 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -256 fpm at 81 %, −0.28 points
Departure Climb 3 — climb speed 162 kt against 183 kt at 91 %, −0.23 points
Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 4.80 m right at 94 %, −0.19 points

Next time

Departure

Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 183 kt.

What happened: Climb speed was 162 kt against a target of 183 kt, running 21 kt slow through the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 183 kt.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Flight narrative

Departing from Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, the Boeing 737-MAX8 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. As the aircraft lined up on runway 28, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 29 °C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 306°. The takeoff roll commenced, and the aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 147 knots, utilizing 62% of the available runway length of 1,787 meters.

As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it began its ascent from 1,072 feet above sea level to 38,002 feet, a vertical increase of 36,930 feet, in a period of 19 minutes and covering a distance of 105 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase concluded 1 mile southeast of Hanover, Maryland. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 25 minutes and covered a distance of 290 nautical miles, before commencing its descent to a lower cruising altitude. The descent phase, which began 1 mile southwest of Ripley Rockford, Ohio, saw the aircraft decrease its altitude from 38,008 feet to 6,128 feet, a vertical decrease of 31,880 feet, in a period of 18 minutes and covering a distance of 136 nautical miles.

As the aircraft continued its journey, it entered a series of level cruise phases, including a brief 5-minute cruise overhead Wheeler, Indiana, covering a distance of 22 nautical miles. The final descent phase began overhead Homewood, Illinois, and saw the aircraft decrease its altitude from 5,844 feet to 2,006 feet, a vertical decrease of 3,838 feet, in a period of 6 minutes and covering a distance of 21 nautical miles. The aircraft then commenced its final approach to runway 04R at Chicago Midway International Airport, touching down on the runway with a touchdown speed of 140 knots and a touchdown distance of 355 meters. The total landing distance was 1,142 meters, utilizing 71% of the available runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, concluding its journey with a total flight distance of 582 nautical miles, a flight time of 82 minutes, and a fuel consumption of 3,789 kilograms.

Landing on runway 04R at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport in the Boeing 737 MAX 8
Landing Score 96.85 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 touched down on runway 04R at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport with a score of 98.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, aligning with the heading of 43.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,385 feet above ground level. The final approach was characterized by good quality, with a smooth descent and a stable rate of descent.

As the aircraft crossed the threshold, it maintained a speed of 143 knots, meeting the required threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 355 meters was within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed landing. However, the touchdown speed of 140 knots was slightly above the optimal range, resulting in a touchdown rate of -284 feet per minute, which was fair. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway.

The aircraft rolled out on the runway with excellent alignment, maintaining a straight path throughout the rollout phase. The total landing distance of 1,142 meters was 71% of the runway length, indicating a safe and controlled landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 9 knots from 110°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The crosswind component of 8 knots and the headwind component of 4 knots were well-managed by the pilot, resulting in a successful landing.
